Church was great - the bells played and the choir sang and were lovely...now we are home and are planning a Guitar Hero tournament with the kids for the rest of the day. Not our usual Easter Sunday but is what feels right, right now.
The last few days seem to have flown by. Mom has been feeling a better, they've been keeping her full of anti-nausea meds which seem to do the trick. The girls and I went over yesterday afternoon and spent about an hour with her, she was getting antsy to be home. After we left there we went over to the house and did a quick cleaning - sweep, mop, vacuum, etc...to get ready for her to come home.
This morning we headed to church about 10. A few minutes after we got there she called and said they released her and her and Dad were on their way to church to eat some breakfast with us. She came in and ate and then left again, she decided she didn't think she could make it through the service. So they went home and she is resting, I don't think we'll go over to see her today but I'll see her tomorrow. She goes back to the hospital tomorrow for some meds and to have her PICC line cleaned. I think she goes in again later in the week for blood tests. Her WBC and platelets are getting pretty low now(which is good) so she may need a transfusion soon too.
Because this treatment is a little different from the last round, she has antibiotics to take at home(she had them in the hospital too) to keep illness at bay, plus they now have her on eye drops to keep her eyes healthy, the chemo can create problems so she'll continue to do the drops during treatment. That's all I can remember for now, I'm sure I'm forgetting something that's coming up. :)
This is the day that the Lord has made; Rejoice and be glad in it!
